Podcast Recap

On Easter, I think about renewal and other lessons I’ve learned from my brave companions and from reading the fabulous book, Kendra and Maddy recommended, Eating In the Light of the Moon. Abby’s comment wakes me up to gratitude for my husband and shines a light on my perfect perfectionism. I discuss music, old school, and we hear from Kendra herself, via Speakpipe, as she shares a good tip to possibly improve my nutrition.

Prayer rocks I placed on Easter Sunday at my upper Zen place for you, Jane, Grace, Sue and Shirl.

Dawn breaks with its daily promise of renewal.

Abby’s comment for me on day 34, the cat-impacted Laurie hissy fit episode

Eating in the Light of the Moon: How Women Can Transform Their Relationship with Food Through Myths, Metaphors, and Storytelling This is the Amazon.com link to the book recommended by Kendra that I also purchased. Note: This is my Amazon Associate link, so purchasing from here gives me a few pennies.

Podcast Recap

I lend my cat’s name to a private listener who wants our input about how to balance recovering from anorexia with losing weight after some bouts with binge eating in her recovery. I also remember my life and finally discover what I was born to do. Today was a true gift of Grace.

Oak trees form a canopy over the park trail. Sun filters through the leaves and dapples the path.

This is the awesome view I enjoy as I ramble around my local park. Peaceful and beautiful. This is how I like to exercise.

Resource of the day

Binge eating after anorexia This is a topic thread posted in the National Eating Disorders Association forum. These all are users of that board, so you may get some insight. But, I do truly think medical and therapeutic support is the best component when struggling with these issues and the NEDA provides a hotline to help you find resources in your area.
